The saw consists of the following component parts:
1. Saw Carriage
The separate saw carriage is one of the new features
of the WS 400-series. The separate saw carriage
results in a system that is both simpler and quicker to
fit than other saws. The saw carriage is supplied
mounted and adjusted on the rail from the factory. The
saw carriage features two levels to facilitate mounting
the rail straight when cutting horizontally and vertically.
2. Locking handle
Used to lock the saw unit in the saw carriage.
3. Saw unit
Houses the feed motors for the saw's travel feed and
the arm's feed as well as two slipping clutches that
prevent the saw from being damaged if it should jam.
4. Speed valve
The speed of the saw motor is controlled with this
valve. There are three positions. The speed of rotation
to be used depends on the blade size used (See the
cutting speed table)
5. Cutting arm
The cutting arm allows blades up to 1000 mm (40") to
be used as the start blade. The cutting arm can be
rotated through 360 degrees, which gives great free-
dom when planning the cut. As the cutting arm has
been moved in 50 mm (2") closer to the rail compared
to earlier saw models, the forces that affect the saw
are reduced appreciably, which gives straighter cuts
and less friction losses between the blade body
and cut.

6. Blade guard guide
The blade guard is suspended from this. When the
saw' is to be lifted the blade guard guide acts as a
handle. The blade guard guide also acts as a
protective cage for the saw.
7. Rail
The machine is supplied with two rails, one 2 m
(6.55 ft) and one 1.2 m (3.95 ft). A saw carriage is
mounted on each rail at the factory.
8. Hub-unit
Hub unit is another new feature on the WS 400 series.
The hub unit is mounted on the blade before the blade
is fitted on the saw and in doing so permits easier
assembly of the blade on the saw. The hub unit is
ready for flush cutting.
9. Thrust washer
Locks the saw blade on the hub unit.
10.Hydraulic hose connections
The hydraulic flow in the large hoses drives the blade
while the hydraulic flow in the smaller hoses drives the
direction of the saw.
The hoses connected to the saw's small female
couplings (closest to the arm) drive the arm for feeding
and removal while those connected to the small male
couplings (furthest from the arm) drive the saw along
the rail.
11.Water connector
Water coolant for the blade is connected here. In
addition to cooling blade, the water also binds the dust.
